« Imani » Series. Some portraits I made from my project documenting muslims families in refugee camp, eastern Congo. North Kivu, 2024.

Hey guys as part of Afrotopias Exhibition that I’m currently part of in Poland, I’m delivering an Online Lecture on Storytelling & Memory in African Contemporary Art. Tomorrow 7:00Pm EAT, find the zoom link below

It’s been a heavy time for so many artists mentally, emotionally, and financially. The cost of creating is rising, and sustaining a practice feels harder than ever. I’m sending love to anyone feeling it. I hope this year brings you ease, opportunities, and the kind of support, emotional and material that helps you keep going.

We have an incredible exhibition lined up for you from Monday to 23rd April at the newly opened Spaces Gallery Ethiopia ( Formerly Post Gallery )

More Installation shots of my series *Forever Is Not Ours* currently part the Afrotope show at The Ethnographic Museum of Warsaw, Poland. My work is in the company of other pieces of 18 brilliant photographers across the continent. The curators did a phenomenal job putting the exhibition together and even included one 3D version of every artists work so that blind people can get to experience our work. There’s also headphones on the side to narrate the descriptions of the work ( Reference the third shot) This show was put together by the Krakow photo month team and first launched during the festival July 2024. The curation team is led by Any Muhoro , Malaika Nabila & Witek Orski The show will be up at the museum until September 14th, watch out for more exciting program updates🚀 You can find more information & pictures from the show on instagram.
